Final ThoughtsĪs you can see the chain here is pretty overwhelming. Then I removed some mud with a narrow Q and removed some high end.įinally a compressor to kick in only during palm mutes (maximum 1db of Gain Reduction)Īnd some final limiting to kill some transients that’d got nothing musical to offer, just stealing headroom. I boosted some high mids at 3k ( 4db in this case) and a 2db at 200khz to give some body. I a lso removed some annoying resonances. I removed the low and high end to leave room for the bass and the hats. I used my stock multi-band compressor plugin, you can use yours it does not matter which plugin, as long as you can compress a specific frequency band.

Here I compressed some of the low mids, to make the palm mutes tighter and more consistent in volume. The reason I am using them is because I am used to their workflow, feel free to use the plugins that you are familiar with. You may see some plugins that you may not own but that’s really not a problem, since you can use stock EQs and compressors to get the job done.
